"Most of the 'original' familys are still there."
Yes they most certainly are - I know several of them and all wonderful folks. All tell wonderful "back in the day" stories of the late '60's and early '70's and the stories are a mix of humour, hardship and depict was was the "true wild west" - west Jamaica.
In addition to the "original" familiy members great tales also come from those early visitors who ended up settling in that area - different tales, tru dat! (More wild west-ish)
My friends and I have often wanted to record some of these stories from these wonderful folks - it would make a great read. I shy away - too invasive. I can only try to remember them the best I can.
